Why J-20 is there? I thought J-20 is not for sale.

Yeah weird.. I'm not sure what's their aim here.. Since I still believe J-20 is not for sale. Maybe J-35 possibly but defintely not J-20

The appearance of J20 is not for sales purpose but to show that they have the top rated technology that rival other aircraft making companies. This will help their potentials sales of J10C, JF-17 and other aircraft.

Wow... Is AVIC the only company that makes all this aircrafts?

AVIC is a conglomerate for Shenyang, Chengdu, Xi'an, Harbin, etc. Basically the entire industry.

Except COMAC, which they should have their own booth if they showed up at all

Entire military aviation industry, that is. COMAC is civilian and spun off deliberately for that reason.
